This has happened to me many times. I still haven't legitimately beat the mission. I originally moved beyond it in the campaign by getting shot down right away in my very first attempt at it. Flying the Apache is so much fun though that I keep loading this mission up to try and complete all the objectives at least once. I just never have enough hellfires though and the mission inevitably ends during one of my many repair and rearming runs. :mad: I'll still keep trying because the Apache is so bad ass, but this game is really turning into an abusive relationship for me with all these mission and AI quirks... :rolleyes:

What a shame. :confused: Using column formation all the time helped somewhat. The drivers don't seem to be aware of the maps in anyway still. I have had my driver go straight into a building and keep flooring it in place like he was waiting for it to move out of the way. They pretty much just go in a straight line to any way point. No consideration for roads or inclination or anything... ---------- Post added at 02:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 PM ---------- Thanks, I'll try the safe/dange/stealth settings. In the campaign mission I mention, there's a 180 deg turn through the passe that you're supposed to escort the convoy through... I've had the bradleys plunge down the very steep hill approaching the turn because my tank had gotten too far ahead and that was the shortest path I guess.

New to the ArmA series with OA...Is there anything that can be done to improve the AI driving? Hidden settings, mods maybe? I have a good amount of cpu to throw around if there was a setting to allocate more to AI, etc. I'm at the first campaign mission involving an abrams and 3 bradleys driving towards the crash site. I try to stay in the commander seat on the abrams and give 'move to' orders, either with the map or targeting outside, but my driver and the drivers in the bradley seem like they are drunk... The bradleys are especially funny and spend most of the time repeatedly crashing into each other or just plain getting stuck together or on terrain. It's all quite frustrating in a game that up until this has simply blown me away. Thanks
